New approaches to interactive sessional search for complex tasks. This project aims to develop new tools and techniques to improve the accuracy and speed of search and data analytics for complex information tasks. There are currently no publicly available search engines which support users engaged in complex interactive search, or that allow searchers to fully control their own data and privacy. Fundamental research advances, based on understanding real user behaviour and search needs will have ....New approaches to interactive sessional search for complex tasks. This project aims to develop new tools and techniques to improve the accuracy and speed of search and data analytics for complex information tasks. There are currently no publicly available search engines which support users engaged in complex interactive search, or that allow searchers to fully control their own data and privacy. Fundamental research advances, based on understanding real user behaviour and search needs will have an impact on important academic, industrial, and government domains, including virtual assistants, health care (clinical decision support), precision medicine, eDiscovery, crime prevention, and detailed socio-economic evaluations.Read moreRead less
Real-time Analytics on Urban Trajectory Data for Road Traffic Management. This project aims to develop real-time analytics and data management capabilities that leverage large-scale urban trajectory data to provide road operators with real-time insights into population movements and enable data-driven, customer-centric network operations. Current traffic management practices rely heavily on aggregate vehicle count data from fixed road sensors, which have limitations in accurately measuring traff ....Real-time Analytics on Urban Trajectory Data for Road Traffic Management. This project aims to develop real-time analytics and data management capabilities that leverage large-scale urban trajectory data to provide road operators with real-time insights into population movements and enable data-driven, customer-centric network operations. Current traffic management practices rely heavily on aggregate vehicle count data from fixed road sensors, which have limitations in accurately measuring traffic demand and network congestion propagation. This project seeks to develop innovative technologies to use a wide variety of data sources, especially massive trajectories of vehicles moving across the network, to better understand people's travel demands and road usage patterns and thus better manage the transport system.

Detection of location significance from quality enhanced trajectory data. This project aims to develop effective and efficient methods to utilise large scale Global Positioning System, route and location data to provide individuals, business, government and social groups, the ability to assess the relative significance of locations and associated services, for use in applications such as transportation, logistics, public safety, tourism and utilities.
In-memory moving objects analytics for real-time business applications. This project aims to develop a novel computing foundation based on in-memory technologies to address significant challenges of big data and location-based business intelligence, building upon the well-recognised research excellence in spatiotemporal data management at the University of Queensland, and HANA, SAP's (Systems, Applications, Products in data processing) new in-memory analytics platform.
Declaration, Exploration, Enhancement and Provenance: The DEEP Approach to Data Quality Management Systems. The project proposes the Declaration, Exploration, Enhancement, Provenance (DEEP) approach to data quality management. The approach adopts a whole-of-data-cycle view towards addressing complex and emerging problems in data quality management and aims to develop novel and comprehensive mechanisms to improve data quality measurement, enforcement and monitoring. Due to the application-centric ....Declaration, Exploration, Enhancement and Provenance: The DEEP Approach to Data Quality Management Systems. The project proposes the Declaration, Exploration, Enhancement, Provenance (DEEP) approach to data quality management. The approach adopts a whole-of-data-cycle view towards addressing complex and emerging problems in data quality management and aims to develop novel and comprehensive mechanisms to improve data quality measurement, enforcement and monitoring. Due to the application-centric nature of DEEP, the outcomes from the project are expected to increase user understanding of data characteristics, improve interpretability of information derived from large, multi-source data sets and contribute to enhancement of data literacy levels in involved user communities.

The ubiquitous fusion of social network services and Global Positioning System-enabled mobile devices has generated large-scale activity trajectory data representing the footprint of people's daily activities. It presents an unprecedented opportunity to build highly intelligent recommendation systems. Existing approaches that merely focus on the location aspect of trajectories are limited in their ability to understand genuine preferences from travel histories, due to lack of consideration for activity information as well as the associated semantics and context. This project aims to address these issues and provide effective recommendations by considering both users’ intention and collective behavioural knowledge inferred from activity trajectories.Read moreRead less
